One of the joys of serving a mission as a senior couple is working with young missionaries who are so dedicated and hard working. One of our tasks is help them move their luggage during transfer day. This next photo is us with Elder Pauperio, who in this picture was going home to Brazil after successfully completing his 2 years of service. At the end of his mission, he was serving in Naze on an island south of us. Every 6 weeks for zone conference, he and his companion would make the long arduous trek from Naze, which consisted of traveling by 12 hour ferry ride (we have the honor of picking them up at the port) and a 3-4 long bus ride from Kagoshima to Kumamoto. Then reverse route to go back to Naze. Elder Pauperio is a fine young man, who loves to cook. He loved eating this one Japanese dish with spinach. He asked Sister Lee if she had a recipe for it. She didn't bring one with her but we found one on the internet. He also did a cooking demonstration and needed help to get the recipe of a Brazilian dish translated into Japanese. Sister Lee gladly obliged.
This next photo is of 2 sister missionaries from Australia. Sister Orth in the middle is from Brisbane and Sister Spilling is from Tasmania. Sister Orth was transferring to Fukuoka. All of these photos are just outside the Kagoshima Bus Terminal.
